"Robert and his friend went nuts yelling at him," the source tells Hit Stuff. "The comic didn't knowwho it was, but I'm sure he found out later!" Pattinson screamed, "F--k you! You suck!" says a witness.

Robert Pattinson, sexy vampire star of the movie "Twilight," caused an absolute Internet uproar with a new hairdo that many fans thinks is a hair don't: He traded in his trademark tousled locks (perfect for vampiring) for a no-muss, Marine-style crew cut. (Perfect for looking like a standard-issue Hollywood star.)

Let's just say that the new look has not gone unnoticed. Fans of the teen heartthrob turned to the Web in a frenzy of look-ups for "Robert Pattinson haircut." And also "Robert Pattinson new hair," "Robert Pattinson new hair cut," "Rob Pattinson new haircut," and "Robert Pattinson with short hair."

This year Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson solidified themselves as Hollywood players. Starring as Bella and Edward in the amazingly popular "Twilight," they won the hearts of teenage girls everywhere, whose fanaticism and support of the movie made it a surefire hit. They are already lined up to work on its sequel, "New Moon," so you know these two are ready to rule the 2009 box office as well.

Twilight star Robert Pattinson says goodbye to his trademark tousled locks and shows off his new sexy short haircut as he arrives at Heathrow airport in London on Monday. (The taping for New Moon isn’t for awhile, so it’s likely his hair will grow back in time!)

The 22-year-old British actor, who is in a band in London, brought along his guitar for the trip. Robert has said, “I am in a band at the moment called Bad Girls. The band belongs to my first girlfriend’s current boyfriend and he was having an open mic night. He invited me to sing, but it was just a bit of fun - that was about six months ago. I don’t know where that’s going to go.”
